Default 1947 BOND BREAD and its "imposters"....show us your cards ?

Posted By: Ted Zanidakis

Thanks for posting your cards.....and, judging from the backs, your cards appear to be uncirculated ones from the Sports
Star Subjects issue. Just as you previously said.

All I can say is that these little B/W cards never cease to amaze me. I was under the impression that Festberg's find con-
sisted of the SQUARE cards printed on the "inferior" cardboard stock. Back to the drawing board for me....because we still
haven't determined the source of the cards that are on thinner stock whose backs are discolored.

I still maintain that some where along the line, some one "reprinted" (or reproduced) them from the 24 cards in your set. As,
the identical subjects are found with the inferior cardboard (and, none of the other 24 in the original 1947 Bond Bread set).
